Thanks for all the help everyone. I talked it over with the wife and we decided to go for the Borla/Mopar exhaust. In fact, its sitting assembled in the living room as we speak![8)]
She is out of town now so I will install it for here tommorrow night and let you know what I think. We will also get it dyno'd soon to let you know exactly what it did for our (her) Cruiser. Stock was 200whp/225wtq....we'll see.[|)]

Where did you end up getting it from? Is it a 2.5"? be sure to post pictures when you get it installed.

I got it from autotrucktoys.com It was $524 shipped (seemed like a good price compared to others). I installed it for her last night in the garage and only took about 45min-hour. I honestly thought it would sound a little louder, but its a nice setup. I would have liked to see a little bigger tips, but oh well. There is a slight rumble at idle, but at cruising it is basically not noticeable. I did notice a butt-dyno increase but it seemed to drop off harder after the turbo....maybe Im crazy[|)](hah, got to use it!) I hope she likes it! Even though I did know that Mopar and Boral teamed up on it, I was kinda surprised to see that there was nothing to affiliate the exhaust with Borla at all! Package said Mopar, imprinted on the muffler is Mopar, only the packing slip said Mopar/Borla. Weird....
Anyhow here is how it looks now:

Did you have to cut a place in your rear bumper for the other output? Is there any borla 2.5" single output exhaust?

Yeah, I had to cut another slot out. I honestly dont know if Borla has something other than the dual side exhaust. You all are the experts! Im going off what you all say!

Did you buy the unit made for the Turbo? I think it is part nmber 4510463? Looks real complicated but it sounded and performed nice at the last black party!

Thats the part number. Its not hard, really simple. Hardest part was getting the stock exhaust off since they were heated together and hard to pry apart, but with a little lovin, it will come off!
